welcome cori, from san francisco. i am a mom, who saved all of the playmobil from my son (32) and daughter (29), as it was such a treat when we bought them, and they were so different from any of the other toys available in the states. when we moved, a few years ago, i discovered the boxes of smiling faces and remembered all of the good times they provided, and started buying all of the pieces we could not justify spending the money on back then. i have always collected all of the medical themes, so i finally finished building a medical center, not too long ago. hope you can find your old toys. kaethe
